Analysis - Holes



After I've finished the book, I will analyse the book to express some interesting points about the novel. First of all, as I've already written in my previous entries, the novel has an immersive style making the reader addicted to the book. Secondly, different views to events like one chapter focusing on Stanley, one chapter to Elya, one chapter to Kate Barlow (a thief which buried a treasure under the camp area causing actually the establishment of it) and one chapter to facts which the reader is let know between the real story make the reader able to make predictions and try to understand which connections are there between those chapters; and also creates an amusing suspense during the reading. The style of sliced flashback parts (from the present time to hundred years ago, when Elya and Kate Barlow lived) is used effectively which maintains the enthusiasm of the reader.
Thirdly, the author's style of giving hints to the reader for connecting the times and parts makes the reader give mental effort to understand what the connections mean. (i.e. ''When he/she smiled, his/her mouth seemed too big for his/her face.'' (p. 182, l. 13)/used firstly about Zero, than about a women, indicating that the women was Zero's mom.)
